My family and I absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful mountain home! It was cozy, comfortable, and so enjoyable. We especially loved the deck with the fireplace, where we could relax and take in the beautiful mountain views.
One of our favorite features was the bedroom with the French doors opening out toward the mountains. Waking up to those incredible views was truly special!
From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. It was so comfortable and welcoming that we felt like we were staying in our own home. We made wonderful memories with our family and couldn’t have asked for a better getaway.
We will definitely be returning! Highly recommend this beautiful mountain home to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable escape. ❤️🏡🏔️

We have stayed at this home several times before - so not much is a surprise to us. We absolutely love the setting of this home - great views out to the mountains, it is in a quiet area and is extremely peaceful. The home is perfect for a large family or a couple small families! We had 6 adults and 4 kids - and it was awesome. Kids loved getting the chance to fish in the creek, played ball in the field and had a ton of fun. We will be back for sure!

Lovely Fall Views
by Margaret

The house was beautifully decorated and the kitchen well stocked with everything we needed. We had a great time and everyone enjoyed the house and neighborhood - relaxing, fishing, walking etc. The huge TV was great for football on Saturday afternoon. The fall color was perfect and the Maple tree near the deck provided a great autumn backdrop for our family pictures.

Serenity House Stay - Highly Recommended!!!
by Inbar
5/5
Our family of 5 had a week long stay in the "Serenity" house, and the unit is just incredible! The Check-in process was seamless, and the house is impeccable, stocked with everything that a family needs for a great stay. The views from the balcony were AMAZING and the grounds of the gated community were pristine. The living rooms (upstairs and downstairs) as well as the bedrooms are spacious with ample storage room and closets. It is decorated beautifully and practically...they thought of everything! There is plenty of natural light in the house, and although it feels remote, the location is close to EVERYTHING outdoors and the town of Sylva for shopping and dining. This house was a welcome respite from the Northeast, and a wonderful vacation home for our family. We can't recommend it enough!

Our three-generation family enjoyed this property so much. The management company was responsive to our requests. The property was perfect for adults and children (ages 9-14). It’s a beautiful home and well-maintained. We enjoyed the deck for morning coffee, grilling and hanging out. The pool was a great addition for afternoon activity. We highly recommend this home.

Lovely stay at Serenity
by Karen
5/5
My family had a lovely stay at Serenity. Not much beats the spectacular view of the Smokey Mountains from the deck on the main level, where we spent a lot of time. The house had everything we needed and was clean, spacious and comfortable. There were 2 en-suite bedrooms plus 2 other bedrooms and enough bathrooms to accommodate all of us. When we weren't hanging out on the deck, we hiked the Blue Ridge Parkway and the High Falls trail, shopped and visited craft breweries in Sylva and swam in the community pool down the hill. I can't wait to go back. I highly recommend this house, especially if you're visiting Western Carolina University which is only a few minutes away.

We are delighted that you enjoyed the property and the lovely downtown Sylva. We enjoyed hosting you and your family and we hope to host you again in the future!
Serenity cottage

We shared Serenity cottage with friends for Open House weekend at WCU. The house was beautiful and very spacious,plenty of room to share family dinner, watch TV and play games. Serenity was even better than the pictures online. I highly recommend staying in this home! Sundog rentals were very helpful and quickly responded to any questions that I had prior to arrival.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Serenity cottage during Open House weekend at WCU. We are thrilled to hear that you and your friends had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the spaciousness and beauty of the house. We also appreciate your kind words about our team at Sundog rentals. Our goal is to provide exceptional service and ensure that our guests have a seamless and enjoyable stay. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future. Thank you again for choosing Serenity cottage and sharing your positive review.

Incredible vacation home
by Ellen
5/5
This home exceeded our expectations!! We ate all meals, had cocktail hour and even worked on our computers from the porch because the view of the mountains from the porch is outstanding. It is hard to look away from the view. The beds are super comfortable, the kitchen is fully equipped (even had a Keurig for our morning coffee) and the home is "mountain elegance"(modern with mountain flare). Bonus- it is close to amazing hikes in Blue Ridge Parkway, Smokey Mountain National Park, Nantahala and Pisgah National Forest. We highly recommend this wonderful house for a mountain vacation.
Wonderful WCU move-in!
by Melissa

We met family at this home to help move our nephew into WCU. What an outstanding location and beautiful views! Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well stocked (we cooked dinner each night). We loved the community walking/hiking trails and sitting on the back deck. Will definitely book a return visit here!
Amazing Cabin

We enjoyed our long weekend at Serenity. It is a beautiful place with a beautiful view. Very spacious. Wide covered decks. Plenty of room for everyone. Pool and trail were a great addition. Wish we could have stayed longer.
Thank you for taking care of the home, Julie! We hope you will book with us again in the future!

We very much enjoyed our stay at this mountain home. Internet service is a problem, though. Several in our group were unable to get service and for someone trying to do work, that is a problem.

Thank you for bring this to our attention. We have fixed the guest network in the home to ensure there are no future problems. We're glad to hear you had a wonderful time in the Great Smoky Mountains during your vacation. We hope to see you again in the near future, we would host to this guest again!
Quiet & Beautiful Home with Panoramic Views!
by Alistair
5/5
We were delighted to find this home at the top end of the hill with minimal views of other neighboring properties. The views from the inside and the back porch let you see a nice range of mountains/hills across the little river fork valley. We were instantly blown away by how quiet it was, both inside and out. The house is well taken care of, has great finishes, is furnished well and has plenty of seating and TV options for all the guests in your group. The grill was easy to use as was the outside fireplace (there's one inside too). Kitchen-wise, it was well stocked with great knives and silverware, tons of plates/bowls, cutting boards, trivets, towels, mixing bowls and pots and pans. The Jenn-Air fridge and microwave were a nice touch, with the range being a glass top but of a different brand. Parking-wise, we managed 3 average vehicles without issue. Right at the property we saw 5 deer, 1 raccoon, a few woodpeckers and assorted birds, 1 rabbit, and a tiny bat that flew onto the back porch rug for a few minutes. If you walk down the hill into the larger community and towards the river, you might get to spot a fish or two and maybe say hi to another resident's dog on a walk.
We'd highly recommend this property, it was a fantastic spot for our week long Thanksgiving getaway!
Wonder 3 days at Serenity
by Fran
5/5
Our family spent a long weekend at Serenity Cabin, and we all said it was the best place we have ever stayed. We were in town for a family wedding so there was quite a bit of coming and going. We spent most of the time on the porch when we were there. It’s perfect if you have children. They enjoyed the creek and the pool. Yes, the WiFi can be spotty, especially if it is cloudy, but most of the time we had coverage on the porch. We really would like to come back again when we don’t have anything else going on. Oh, and also, my son in law says it’s the best stocked kitchen in any rental he’s stayed in.

Thank you for your feedback! We would be delighted to host you again!

Cullowhee mountain Home
by Brenda
5/5
You step inside and the view is the first thing you notice. Breathtaking. The house is gorgeous and we loved the open floor plan. Plenty of room for 7 adults and 2 kids. The only negative would be that the wifi was weak and our cell phones had no service. We couldn't call out if there was an emergency. We would suggest having a land line for emergency situations. Otherwise our stay was amazing and we hated to leave!
Family Vacation
by Jerry
5/5
We had a wonderful vacation with our family. We enjoyed the views, the community, and the little towns all around. We were able to relax and enjoy each other's company. The house is well- stocked and comfortable. The only suggestion would be that a carpet jokey or small vacuum is needed to clean up little messes.

This was the best house we have stayed in due to the location, the house is well stocked with kitchen supplies (we added to the spices and oil). Very comfortable and inviting. Thank you so much it made our stay even better to watch our daughter graduate from Western Carolina University. Go Cats!!
Perfect Mountain Retreat
by Sam
5/5
Wow!! What a perfect mountain retreat. We loved our time at this beautiful home. We lived out in the deck. The views from the deck are stunning. It’s like you’re in the middle of the national forest, but you have the security of being in a gated community. Plus there isn’t a long, narrow, twisty turny mountain road to get there. Access is easy, which is really important for someone like me who gets carsick really easily. We visited the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Blue Ridge Parkway, both of which are not far. And we enjoyed the restaurants fairly close by in Sylva and Dillsboro. We didn’t do much cooking. It was vacation after all. The home was clean, comfy and well stocked. The pictures and description make this place sound nice, but it’s even better in person. We can’t wait to go back.
